Frequently Asked Questions
Iron test is done to detect iron deficiency anaemia, anaemia due to chronic disease and iron overload in conditions such as hemochromatosis and workup of microcytic hypochromic anaemia
Measures the serum iron, TIBC, UIBC & transferrin saturation
Iron test requires a blood sample. A tourniquet (elastic) band is placed tightly on the upper arm. The patient is then asked to make a fist. This helps in the build-up of blood filling the veins. The skin is disinfected before needle insertion and the blood sample is collected in vacutainer.
Iron deficiency anaemia: Concentration of Iron and transferrin saturation is decreased, while UIBC, TIBC is increased
Anaemia of chronic disease: Iron is decreased but transferrin saturation, UIBC, TIBC can be normal or decreased
Iron overload: Iron & transferrin saturation are increased, while UIBC is decreased and TIBC can be increased or normal
